Here's a plant you'll either love or hate... no in between! R. 'Strawberries and Cream' was discovered by Scott Reaves of TreeSearch Farms in Texas in 1994 in a patch of R. 'Katie'. The foliage is speckled white... heck, it's nearly completely white, except when grown in sun where a wonderful pink cast covers the foliage! The large blue-purple flowers top the dwarf clump from summer through fall... WOW!
